Step up to a GPS receiver

If you're ready to enjoy the benefits of navigation and touchscreen controls, the Kenwood DNX5190 navigation receiver is a great place to start. Like all of Kenwood's 2012 navigation lineup, it offers GPS guidance from Garmin with a new processor that's up to three times faster than on previous Kenwood models.

The DNX5190's Garmin navigation software includes over 6 million points of interest for the US, Canada, and Puerto Rico. You'll enjoy 2D or 3D map views, plus a text-to-speech function that announces the names of streets or roads you're directed to. If you travel in areas with heavy traffic, the receiver's processor calculates routes based on historical traffic data, so you'll get where you're going faster.

PANDORA® Internet radio with iPhone®

The receiver lets you control your PANDORA stations from the touchscreen, with access to your favorite stations, plus "thumbs up" or "thumbs down" ratings. Just connect iPhone to the DNX5190 with Kenwood's audio/video cable (not included) and you're good to go.

Other music and video options

You can also plug your iPod®into the rear USB port and browse all your favorite albums and playlists. And the receiver plays your CDs and DVDs, including discs loaded with music files, while a rear A/V input offers a connection for any other audio/video sources. You can use the 3-band parametric equalizer and a variety of soundshaping tools to tailor the sound to match your taste.

Video content looks great on the high-resolution VGA screen — slide in a DVD and enjoy when the car is parked. You can also check out video content on your iPod or iPhone with Kenwood's video cable (not included). When you're on the road, you can play movies through a rear-seat monitor for your passengers. It's a great way to spice up long road trips.

Bluetooth for safer driving

When a call comes in, you'll answer with one tap of your finger — you'll hear your callers over your vehicle's speakers and talk to them just like they're in the seat right next to you. You can mount the included microphone in a good spot in your vehicle, so your callers will hear you loud and clear.

Expand your system

You can hook up a satellite radio tuner to the receiver to access the wide variety of entertainment, sports, news, and commercial-free music that SiriusXM provides. You can also connect a rear-view camera, so you can see what's behind you as you back out of a tight parking space. If you're looking to add amps and subs, you'll love the three sets of preamp outputs, including a dedicated subwoofer output with low-pass filter and level control.

Want to keep your car's steering wheel audio controls?

In most vehicles, you can use an adapter to connect your vehicle's steering wheel controls to this Kenwood stereo. Connect a few wires, then program the adapter for your particular car and the Kenwood, and you'll retain the convenience of your steering wheel controls.

Note: Bluetooth compatibility of this device may vary, depending on your phone and service provider.

Note: If you're going to use your iPod with this receiver, be sure to check "Details" for specific iPod model compatibility with this receiver or its optional iPod adapter.

Why install a car stereo with built-in GPS?

Imagine taking a trip as your car's receiver gives you directions, finds the best restaurant for dinner, and plays movies for your back seat denizens. Navigation receivers cover all the bases, with GPS guidance, DVD playback, and a host of other useful features. You can search through millions of points of interest to locate gas stations, restaurants, museums, and other interesting spots, wherever you are. Most receivers offer Bluetooth capability for hands-free calling, along with the ability to search through your iPod playlists with touchscreen controls.

Kenwood w/nav

Great apperance and overall quality. Easy to install with the supplied install items. Haven't delved into all of the features as yet but like everything so far. Actually has way more features than I need but it all comes with it. Boot-up time is minimal. However, once I agree to the GPS disclaimer I shouldn't have to agree each time I activate GPS. Mapping is spot on and it's hard to beat Garmin GPS quality and accuracy anyway. Needed to call Tech Support for a wiring question, quick accurate answer was very appreciated. So far, so good. I can't see where a more expensive unit would be much better.

Pros:Easy to use screen and menu, GPS is great. I only have two speakers in my truck but sound quality is excellent.

Cons:Continually having to agree to GPS discalimer is redundant and a nusance. Connecting the parking brake lead is a pain and the instructions aren't very clear as to which wire to use.

More Detailed info please.....

I had a bit of a problem with the pairing of the bluetooth to my Samsung Rugby II phone,however, after several tries I managed accomplish the task. The supplied microphone is totally useless (too distorted). I replaced it with a Sony mic ( sold by Crutchfield) and all of the problems went away. Please note that as of this review the current firmware from Kenwoos is 1.60 downlaodable from the Kenwood site. When installing the firmware please use a standard thumbdrive FAT16 or FAT32. The unit will not read a NTFS based thumbdrive. Overall the 5190 is a good unit for the price.

Ease of use is great

Written By NateW, Bellevue, WA on Tuesday, April 17, 2012

I just had this installed in my wife's Audi A3 and so far we love it. We added a back-up camera and it works great. Despite our installer's incorrect assumption that we could strean through bluetooth on this unit, it is still a great product. It is a bit of a pain to have to plug and play with this unit, but it is very fast. The upgraded processor works seemelessly. The antenna's don't seem to work very well (GPS and Tuner) when inside any garage, but well on the open road. The sound quality on calls and while listening to Pandora or our IPod is great. I haven't figured out how to do text messages from the head unit yet, but that really isn't a priority. It took a couple of minutes for the IPod to load all of my music, but once it was done, all songs and playlists were easy to access. Also, adjusting the color to match the factory red was simple. There is a lot of information which you need to read to figure things out, but I like all the gadgets. I also haven't figured out how to add a custom background yet. Overall, I would recommend, but if you want to stream, then you will need one of the DNX7s.

Pros:Ease of use, able to run my ipod, phone and pandora all through the unit with phone in glovebox. It switches between applications seemlessly

Cons:Wasn't able to do SMS with IPhone, but I may need some time to figure it out. Doesn't come with remote or screen cleaner.

Audio Section

MOSFET Amplifier: The Kenwood DNX5190 is equipped
with a MOSFET amplifier. Compared to conventional power supplies, the MOSFET
amplification circuit is smaller and more efficient, and it delivers increased
power with less distortion and absolutely zero on/off switching noise. More
power means louder and cleaner music at higher volumes because you're not
pushing the limits of the amplification circuit. The power output specs for the
DNX5190 are as follows:

6ch/2V Preamp Outputs: The DNX5190 features front, rear and
subwoofer 2.0-volt preamp outputs. The front and rear speaker preamp outputs are
balance and fade adjustable. The subwoofer preamp output is non-fading. The
front, rear, and subwoofer preamp outputs are fixed to the rear chassis of the
head unit.

Front & Rear High-Pass Filter: The DNX5190 features an
independent High-Pass Crossover for the front & rear channels when your front &
rear speakers are connected by the unit's speaker-outputs or preamp-outputs. You
can adjust the high-pass crossover from 'Through' (off), 40, 60, 80, 100, 120,
150, 180, or 220 Hz. The
"Through" selection is a full-range setting. This feature is very helpful when
you have smaller-type speakers in the front and larger-type speakers installed
in the rear of the vehicle.

Subwoofer Controls: The Kenwood DNX5190 offers the
following subwoofer controls, when you have the unit's subwoofer preamp output
activated.

Low Pass Filter: The receiver features a built-in Low
Pass Filter control for the preamp-output, when the output is set to
Subwoofer. You can select from 50, 60, 80, Hz, 100 Hz, 120 Hz, or 'Through'
(off).

Subwoofer Phase: You can adjust the phase of the
subwoofer output between 180-degrees (Reverse) or 0-degrees (Normal).

Subwoofer Level: Once the Subwoofer preamp output is
activated, you can independently control the subwoofer preamp output level
(-50 to +10) from the DVD receiver.

Speaker Type Setting: This feature tailors the DNX5190
according to the type of front speakers in your vehicle. You may select Standard
(for speakers with a general diameter), Narrow (for speakers with a small
diameter), Middle (for speakers with a medium diameter), or Wide (for speakers
with a large diameter).

Preset EQ: Eight EQ curves are preset into memory, allowing
you to recall the best preset EQ curve for different types of music. Each preset
has its own level settings for bass (100Hz), midrange (1kHz), and treble
(10kHz). You can choose from the following preset EQ curves - Rock, Pops,
Easy, Top 40, Jazz, Natural, Flat, and User.

EQ Pro: The DNX5190 features independent Bass,
Treble, and Midrange control when the Preset EQ is in User mode. EQ Pro allows
you to adjust the following settings for the Bass, Treble and Mid frequency
levels.

Loudness: This function enhances low and high frequencies to
make the sound clearer lower volumes. There are 3 levels (LV1, LV2, or Off).

Volume Offset: The level of each source may be independently
adjusted to prevent radical leaps in output volume when switching from one
source to another. The available settings range from -8 to 0 (-8 to +8 for Aux
source).

Dynamic Range: The dynamic range can be adjusted by
selecting either Normal, Wide or Dialog. Dialog makes the total sound volume
become larger as compared with Wide and Normal, allowing you to listen to the
movie's dialogue more clearly. This is effective only on Dolby Digital software.

Tel Mute: The DNX5190 features a cell-phone mute wire (tan)
in its harness that when hooked up to your car's phone system mute wire will
automatically mute the receiver's audio signal when a call comes in.

Key Beep: The in-dash multimedia head unit provides an
audible beep to confirm button operation. This function can be turned On or Off.

A/V Output (with Dual Zone): The unit features a set of
stereo RCA jacks and a composite video jack to output A/V signals to an optional
monitor and headphone system. The unit's A/V output can be set to Disc, Video,
iPod, or Off. You can adjust the volume of the 2nd Zone independently from 0 to
35. You can select between a 16:9, 4:3 LB, or 4:3 PS Aspect Ratio for the unit's
video output to match your connected monitor.

Note: You cannot select iPod as the A/V Output source
when you select Pandora as a main source in dual zone function.

Camera Input: The unit features a composite video input for
connecting an optional rear view camera, such as the Kenwood CMOS-200 (113CMOS200,
sold separately). The video from this connection can be set to display when
switched to this input, or display the rear view camera video automatically when
the vehicle is shifted into Reverse gear. The purple/white wire (in 22-pin
harness) must be connected to the vehicle's reverse lamp circuit for
automatic video switching. Automatic video switching takes approximately 1.5
seconds. You can manually set the touchscreen to display both the navigation map
and back-up camera at the same time, when backing up.

Note: Audio from your music source will continue playing, while
the back-up camera is displayed.

Optional Remote Control

Optional IR Remote: The optional Kenwood IR remote control (113RCDV331,
sold separately) provides wireless operation over
the Kenwood navigation head unit.
The wireless remote controller operates off of two supplied "AAA"
batteries. The remote operates off of IR transmission, so the KNA-RCDV331 must be
pointed at the front-panel of the Kenwood head unit within direct line of sight.
The functions operated from the remote controller differ depending on the
position of the mode switch located on the right side of the KNA-RCDV331. You
can select from Audio, DVD, TV (not used), or Navigation mode.

Audio: The Audio mode of the remote controller allows
you to operate functions; such as Source switching, Volume, Dual Zone, HD
Radio tuning, Bluetooth Audio, and iPod/USB playback.

DVD: The DVD mode of the remote controller allows you
to operate functions such as CD/DVD playback and file/track/folder searches.

OEM Integration

Steering Wheel Remote Compatibility: The head unit features
an OEM steering wheel remote control input wire (blue/yellow) within the
included wiring harness that lets you keep your vehicle's factory radio steering
wheel remote controls when used with an optional
steering wheel audio control adapter (sold separately). Please consult
Crutchfield's
Outfit My Car to see if your vehicle is compatible.

Ford SYNC Compatible: 2012 Kenwood navigation head units
are compatible with a web programmable module due from Automotive Data Solutions (ADS) that will permit the aftermarket
Kenwood navigation head unit to work with select Ford, Lincoln, and Mercury vehicles that feature the factory SYNC system. This
ADS iDatalink Maestro module (sold separately...coming soon) lets Ford owners swap out their factory radio for a 2012 Kenwood
navigation head unit; while retaining the OEM Sync voice control, steering wheel controls, hands-free Bluetooth, USB
interface, Satellite Radio, and 911 assist. They can also keep the hands-free mic that comes with the car (which is specially tuned
to that particular vehicle). The iDatalink Maestro module must first be
connected to your computer via USB and programmed, before connection between
your Ford vehicle and the Kenwood navigation head unit. The Kenwood navigation
head unit also features an OEM Setup menu that must be configured before
operation.
